we do projects that combined humor and technology to sell better stories, make the world less horrible. so day job permanent job, and between sleep job. it's all i think about. i want to be one of those makers, not one of the stickers >> how has having a black president affected your work? >> well, it gives me one other job that is accessible now, which is great. you can add that to the list of the ag and athletes and sassy black woman, also president. that is pretty cool. expanded the range. it is a fun and proud image. it also created some challenges. president obama as a symbol of massive racial progress is often overstated. so it makes the argument more complicated. our work here is finished as america in the great racial project of equal opportunity. it really isn't, and so having a black president is a shortcut to avoid the difficult conversations and work that we still have to do as a nation. great progress has been achieved, but there is still so much more to go. obama is at challenging figure. he makes us to more than we really have. >> how to be black is the name of the book.

i mean, the drones are a relatively cheap form of technology. i think that's one of the reasons why they're so attractive. the other part of this, though, this may sound cynical, my sense of what happens on capitol hill is that when general petraeus would go before congress as the director of cia or admiral mcraven, the commander of the special operations command, congress members say how do we measure progress? in their eyes, body counts does the on. how many al qaeda figures have been killed. the president made it a center piece of his national security campaign running against romney. how many times at the convention did they say osama bin laden is dead. the president would say if anyone doults my resolve ask the 23 al qaeda members killed. we're operating on fear. congress is asleep at the wheel saying we're winning the war orr on terror. we may be creating more people with inspiration to commit acts of terrorism in countries americans haven't heard of. >> thank you so much. appreciate your time. >>> tackling climate change. you didn't hear
